AWD would be the most appropriate acronym, and for that car. Somewhat different from a 4WD vehicle which generally has locking differentials.
Nowadays most of the SUVs only 2WD. But in that case, could AWD really save the situation.?🤔

Maybe maybe not. But it is another layer of safety between the car and the side rails.

Rip. Though it seems very strange considering how intact the passenger cell is. I wonder if the deceased and injured were not belted up. 

Windows not broken so unlikely that she wasn't belted up. But I suspect that she wasn't seated properly so when the airbag went off, it caused traumatic and fatal injuries to her. One example, legs crossed on dashboard.

这起车祸发生在星期三(6月29日)凌晨2时04分,地点是在芽笼一带的基里玛路(Guillemard Road)。

读者何先生(55岁,殡葬服务人员)通知《新明日报》,当时下班回家途中目睹这起车祸,他看见一辆黑色奥迪停在车道上,现场已有救护车抵达。

他看见一名男子坐在救护车内,另有一名女子则站在一边,相信男子是司机。他也指出事发地点就在加冷消防局前,交通灯都被撞毁。

《新明日报》记者星期三晚走访车祸地点,发现被撞坏的交通灯已完成抢修。附近咖啡店茶水档老板陈先生(35岁)透露,当时在档口里坐着,突然听到从远处传来轿车引擎声,探头查看时,轿车已失控出事。

他发现除了交通灯被撞歪外,同位置的灯柱也被撞倒,现场一片狼藉。

打滑百米 车头撞毁

据他观察,失控轿车是一辆两门式的奥迪跑车,与灯柱距离约100米,相信当时轿车失控后,打滑与冲撞到逆向车道时,才撞倒交通灯与灯柱。

“我看见车内一男一女从车内走出,站在路边,看似没受重伤,车头则撞得毁坏不堪,安全气囊弹出。”

约10分钟后,他目睹两人的朋友驾车前来协助,其中一辆是保时捷跑车。

警方受询时透露,接获涉及一辆轿车的意外,40岁男司机疑涉及酒驾被捕,清醒下送院,案件调查中。

A 40-year-old Audi sports car driver was suspected of drunk driving. In the early morning, he lost control and crashed into a lamp post and a traffic light. He also rushed to the opposite lane, slipped 100 meters and stopped, and was arrested by the police on the spot.

The accident happened at 2.04am on Wednesday (June 29) on Guillemard Road in Geylang.

Reader Mr. He (55 years old, funeral service worker) informed Shin Min Daily that he witnessed the accident on his way home from get off work. He saw a black Audi parked in the driveway and an ambulance had arrived at the scene.

He saw a man sitting in an ambulance with a woman standing aside, believing the man was the driver. He also pointed out that the incident happened just in front of the Kallang Fire Station and the traffic lights had been knocked out.

A reporter from Shin Min Daily visited the crash site on Wednesday night and found that the damaged traffic light had been repaired.

He found that in addition to the traffic light being knocked crookedly, the lamp post at the same location was also knocked down, leaving the scene in a mess.

Skidded 100m skid and crashed

According to his observation, the out-of-control car was a two-door Audi sports car with a distance of about 100 meters from the lamp post. It is believed that after the car lost control, it slid and rammed into the opposite lane before hitting the traffic light and lamp post.

"I saw a man and a woman in the car get out of the car and stand on the side of the road, seemingly uninjured, but the front of the car was devastated and the airbags deployed."

About 10 minutes later, he saw friends of the two, one of them a Porsche, come to help in a car.

It is also a good habit to keep a lookout for puddle of water on the road. Easy to spot if there is a car in front since the car in front would hit the puddle first give the sign. I always do that when driving under heavy rain. Release the peddle when going through the puddle. 

many spots along our expressways have big puddles in the right most lanes due to poor drainage.  Hold the steering wheel firmly when driving in Lane 1 during downpour.

ya lah....joking bah? 110km/h during heavy rain? you will be sliding instead of driving...

Respectfully disagree. With the right car, tires, and good roads, 110 is perfectly fine.
